Ecstacy of the Heart novel Chapter 31

Anna turned around to steal a glance at the Julius at her side and smiled at Allison, “We come all the way to apologize to you.”

Allison had been muddled-headed and felt even more baffled when hearing that Anna wanted to make an apology to her.

According to her understating of Anna and Julius, they would not apologize to her; instead, they would have the almost overwhelming desire to trample over her. How came that they were willing to lower their heads to make an apology?

But before she could ask the question, Anna nudged Julius and winked at him.

Julius frowned, “Alice, we did it wrong last time. A great man would harbor grievance for past wrongs. Please, spare us this time. I and Anna are really regretting about it.”

Allison clenched her fists, “Spare you? It was you who wanted to beat me, and you who instructed Renata to set me up. Shouldn’t I ask you two to spare me?”

Julius’ face turned from livid to red upon hearing the words, “Alice, we admit that we’ve gone too far last time. But because of this, Aniston Constructions is driven into a corner by Alexander and is now running out of cash. Isn’t he going too far in this aspect?”

Allison was shocked, “What?”

Aniston Constructions was driven into a corner by Alexander?

Anna chimed in at the side, “Yeah, Allison, as long as you can forgive us, we will agree with all the compensation you want. We’ll do our best to satisfy you.”

Allison felt in a daze as if countless bees were buzzing in her mind and she couldn’t figure out what to do at the moment.

She only knew that Alexander didn’t mention about Anna and Julius after that thing and had no idea about the rupture of the cash chain of Aniston Constructions.

Anna gradually grew impatient since she hadn’t received a response from Allison for a long while. She pushed Julius and gave him a fierce glare.

Julius understood it soon. Even if he was reluctant, he still bowed and scraped to Allison and continued to persuade her, “Alice, you’re a kind person, and you won’t bear to see me and Anna sleeping on the street, right? To top it off, we are not the only members of the Aniston family; other members of the family are innocent.”

As he was speaking, he reached out to grab Allison by her hand, “Please, at least we were in a relationship back then. For the sake of it, please intercede with Mr. Parker for us. Alice, please.”

Alice shivered as her hand was suddenly grabbed by Julius. She got goose bumps all over and hastily withdrew her hand and stepped backward, “I didn’t know about this.”

Julius asked, “Alice, should I kneel down to beg you?”

Alice hesitated, not knowing what to do at the moment. Seeing her hesitant look, Julius stepped back, intending to kneel down.

“Don’t do this.” Allison hastily stepped backward, “I… I will help you. I’ll intercede with him on behalf of you…”

Delight crept on Julius’ eyes. He hastily straightened up, “Alice, you’re the kindest person in the world. I’ve always been clear of it.”

Anna said with surprise written all over her face, “Alice, please do it and thank you.”

They expressed their gratitude one after the other. Allison had a complicated mood and finally pulled herself together until they turned around and left.

If this was true, she would think this had gone too far. Even if Anna was so vicious that she instigated someone to plot against her, it was unnecessary to implicate all the staff in Aniston Constructions.

Allison bit her lip, turned around and took the lift in a muddled mind.

She was still jittery after coming back to the office as her mind was filled with this matter.

As she kept thinking about this, she couldn’t calm herself down. It happened that the administrative department had a new task – to deliver a document to the president’s office. Allison accepted the mission, hoping to take the opportunity to ask Alexander about this.

Allison knocked at the door of the president’s office, walked in and put the document on the desk. Yet she showed no intention to leave.

Feeling that something was going wrong, Alexander lifted his head, only to see Allison standing in front of the desk and staring at him.

Their gazes met in the air. Allison felt her heart missing one beat. It was as if that man was in the limelight in the office. And his unfathomable eyes seemed to be sucking her soul in.

“Anything else?”

His cold voice pulled her back to the reality instantly.
